Dark Prince (Nico Di Angelo x Reader)

Storms

You heard the storm before you saw it. The deafening roaring that came from the skies interrupted your archery training.

You were about to shoot another arrow at your target when you finally saw the monstrous grey clouds breaking into camp, through the barriers.

There were surprised mutters around you as people stopped what they were doing, eyes turning towards the sky.

You turned to a fellow camper next to you. 'Know what's going on?' they shake their head.

That was when Chiron galloped into the arena 'I need all of you to head back to your cabins. Looks like this is one storm the barriers won't be able to hold, if you see anyone else tell them to get into their cabins as well.'

Everyone in the arena begins to head off not wanting to be caught in the midst of the storm. You packed up your bow and arrows before placing them back in the weaponry room and headed off to your cabin.

When you walked in, most of your siblings had already gotten back, so there was loud chatter when you opened the door.

'Oh, (y/n) Nico's here to see you.' one of the older boys says, pointing to your bunk bed.

Your brows scrunch together 'Nico?' you ask before heading over to your bed. There Nico sat awkwardly, sticking out immensely. You stifled a giggle as you walked up to the Son of Hades. 'So what brings you here Nico?'

Nico in turn stands up quickly, a look of relief washed on his face. He was never the best in social situations. 'I was wondering if you wanted to hang out at my cabin for a while. Maybe just until the storm ends?' he ask with his words tumbling out.

'Sure, let me grab my laptop so we have some source of entertainment.' You say teasingly. You grabbed a bag and placed your laptop and its charger in it, then let some of your siblings know where you were going.

You did spend a lot of time with Nico, so it wasn't really a surprise to any of them. As you and Nico stepped outside the cabin and you let out a gasp involuntarily. The sky that was clear not 15 minutes ago was covered with grey clouds.

You felt Nico grab your hand, squeezing it tightly. 'We, ah, we should hurry.' He says, his voice on edge. You look up to the black haired boy.

'You ok Nico?'

'Yeah, we should get going though.' He says before pulling you along with him towards his cabin. The two of you make it just in time before the rain starts coming down hard. You had managed to get in shelter just as it began to pour.

'So' you say, setting you bag on his bed 'What do you want to do first? I've got this new game on my laptop that we can try-'

'How about that TV show with the fairytales? We can finish off where we left of the last time.'

Your eyes light up 'You mean 'Once Upon A Time'?' Nico nods 'Sure, I think we finished seasons one and two, so we can binge watch the third season!'

He chuckles at you excitement until the first sound of thunder echoes through the cabin, causing Nico's smile to drop. You noticed how stiff he got. 'You know what we should do? We should make a little pillow fort!'

'A pillow fort?' Your grin widened 'Oh yeah.'

Half an hour later and the two of you had made your little fort in front of Nico's bed, it was small due to the lack of bedding but it was cozy.Nico got in first and you followed in with your laptop, season 3 of Once Upon A Time loaded up.

The two of you were pressed shoulder to shoulder next to each other due to the lack of space but you didn't mind.Nico found it vastly comforting having you next to him.

However as the episodes went by, the storm got worse and worse, and Nico got more and more agitated. 7 episodes in, the thunder got so loud that Nico subconsciously grabbed your hand so tightly you let out a little yelp of pain.

The raven haired boy turned to you in shock 's...sorry (y/n)' he let go of your hand as he shifted his glance form you.

'Nico are you sure you're ok? Is it the storm?' you place your hand on his arm

Nico lets out a nervous chuckle 'It just makes me a bit uncomfortable.'

You wrap your arms around his torso, burying your face in his chest. He takes in a sharp breath as he feels your warm presence. 'Is that why you wanted to hang out today?' you ask from his chest

'Maybe.'

You look up at the blushing Italian 'Idiot, you should have told me.'

'It's pathetic, I'm Child of Hades for crying out loud.' You heard him mutter

'You're also human.' You say looking straight into his brown eyes causing him to turn away, he really didn't know what he would do without you. 'Ish, half human...half god.' You rambled on getting sidetracked with a far off look on your face, your hair fell across your face and Nico gave into the urge to push it back after a while.

You felt him fingers graze your cheek while pushing your hair back and tucking it behind your right ear. '(y/n)...you...you make me feel...better...' Nico manages to stutter out, he was never the best at expressing his emotions so this made you very happy.

You bit your lip, a small smile gracing your lips as you gave the boy a small peck on him now flaming cheek before shifting your position so that your head could rest on his shoulder 'You make me happy Nico. Episode 8?' you asked looking up at him, the Italian nods in agreement, scratching the back of his head slightly embarrassed.
